Intro: Cancakes - Mini Pancake cookerThe mini cooker is ideal for frying 3" versions of English, American or Scotch pancakes. We have used a 500g fruit tin, but any similar sized tin-can will do. The cookinheat is provided by two tea light candles.

Step 1:Materials and toolsRequired bits;

The cooker body is made from a 500g fruit tin. This can is 3 1/4" in diameter.Tin-snips, pliers and a skewer are required for construction of the cooker.The cooker is powered by two tea-lights/tea candles.Cooking a pancake requires nothing more than a spoon and slice.


3/10


Step 2:Construction of the mini cookerFirstly take your empty fruit tin and wash i t thoroughly with hot water to remove any labels and glue.

Then create a ring of air-holes around the top of the cooker. These are vital, they allow air to flow upwards through the cooker. To make the holes simply pierce the tinwith the skewer, taking care not to stab yourself, leave a 1/2" gap between each hole.

Cut a square access hole in the front of the cooker. This allows air in for combustion, and also where you light the candles from. Use the tin-snips to cut a square fromopen end of the tin. If you wish to make the access hole safer, you can use pliers to turn the edges over as shown in the picture.

For best results, the candles should be no more than 4" from the cooking surface, so some cutting down of the can may be nessasary. Make sure that the cooker isstable before attempting to use it.

Step 3:The Batter - English pancake recipeIngredients:

1 medium egg2 ounces of plain flour150 ml (5/8 cup) milk1/2 tea spoon salt

For best results:

Sieve the flour into a bowl and create a dip in the middle.Crack the egg into the dip and add the salt.Whisk the flour and egg while also adding milk until. Mix until smooth and lump free.


4/10


Step 4:The heat sourceThe cooker can be run using either two or three candles depending on how hot you want your cooking surface.

Please note that the whole cooker will become much hotter with three candles, and you risk burning the butter and or fingers.

Using two candles provides sufficient heat to fry pancakes, and leaves the cooker cool enough to hold at the base.

Step 5:Cooking a Cancake mini pancakeFirst, apply a small ammount of your favourite butter to the hot cooking surface.

Then take one tablespoon of the batter mixture and pour it onto the cooking surface, making sure that the batter goes up to the edge but not over the edge.

Cook until the batter has risen and no longer looks liquid. When one side is done it will be firm enough to flip over with the slice.

Normally they will take 2 to 3 minutes on each side. A cooked pancake should be lightly browned on each side.


5/10


Step 6:Serving your Cancake mini PancakeAn english pancake should be served with a sprinkling of sugar and a squeeze of lemon juice.

A gentlemanly way to enjoy your cancake mini pancake is with a nice cup of tea and a sit down.

tz1_1zt says: Feb 21, 2011. 5:16 PM REPMentioned on the Alan Carr Show, BBC Radio2 Saturday 20th of February 2011

One of the listeners contacted the show to say she was making mini pancakes with her children. A very proud moment :-)

watermelon says: Jan 18, 2008. 5:43 PM REPThe zinc on the can might kill this idea.

kage_no_akiri says: Nov 25, 2010. 6:33 PM REPlook up sites on plate armour and youll learn how to raise/dish sheet steel and make a pan with raised edges. you could probably make it an inch biggeon each side with this method.

notker says: Jan 23, 2008. 10:16 AM REPwhen you put aluminum foil on it, then it shouldn'T be so bad...

watermelon says: Jan 23, 2008. 11:48 AM REP

...yeah, notker, a thumbs up on your aluminum foil idea, except for any possible fumes coming from the heated metal, coatings or residue on the ca

chippy says: Nov 2, 2010. 11:43 PM REPGreat idea, I am dreaming of making can cakes in a snow cave http://www.flickr.com/photos/pablography/sets/72157604374163548/ this winte(with proper ventilation of course)NOTE: at least some cans are lined with a plastic coating contain BPA http://www.treehugger.com/files/2008/04/bpa-danger-from-cans.php . Sothink a warning to at least "burn the stink off" is in order. As far as the exterior, it is anyone's guess...if I were super health conscious I wouldn'tuse it at all but if you do at least first get the cooking surface so hot it changes color...outdoors of course, perhaps with an alcohol pepsi can stoor a propane torch.

tz1_1zt says: Jan 23, 2008. 11:25 AM REPHi. You mentioned this zinc thing first, and now someone else has. However, neither of you have provided any links or references to the use of zincin food cans. As far as I'm aware, food cans are made from steel. There is nothing bad about them.

paddlesport says: May 3, 2009. 10:51 AM REPZinc will melt at around 900 F and vaporizes at around 1200 F. I don't think this would be an issue when using candles. Hope this helps. : )

watermelon says: Jan 23, 2008. 11:33 AM REPSince this isn't the Wikipedia I did not think references would be needed. Besides you would have to ask the can company if there was anythingelse covering the steel besides the zinc like varnish. However, notker has provided a solution even if there is rat poison left over from where thegrocery store warehouse extermination team sprayed it all over the cans and floor while it was there in the warehouse. With the aluminum foilidea all you have to worry about is cross contamination so be sure to wash your hands before and after handling the can ans the pancakesunless of course you do not care about any possible medical complications resulting from not having done so.

tz1_1zt says: Jan 23, 2008. 12:39 PM REPYou suggest that "zinc on the can might kill this idea", I'm just asking whether there are any facts to back up this idea. The rat poison claimsare just unnecessary and hysterical, please delete the vapor post.

watermelon says: Jan 23, 2008. 11:36 AM REPP.S. ...also be aware that when rat poison residue is heated up by the candles that it may turn to vapor and might cause some kind of reactif inhaled or might enter the pancake if the AL foil is not used as a barrier. Good luck on this one.

notker says: Jan 25, 2008. 12:43 PM REPEhm.... OK... just don't do this foodproject if you think it could harm you.... but No Risk No Fun _

Puzzledd says: Sep 3, 2010. 5:44 PM REPLove this idea - quirky but practical, easy, well-presented and cute! Really inspiring, thanks!

enixgoober says: Mar 19, 2009. 5:06 PM REPWOOHOO oh yeah! I used a very thick tin can, so I had to drill holes in it! Nonetheless delicious!

chuckr44 says: Jan 29, 2009. 9:54 AM REPA thicker cooking surface will spread out the heat more and prevent burning. I'm just sayin.

awang8 says: Jan 9, 2009. 3:42 AM REPThis is a really good idea! My only suggestion would to spread some oil of the top before cooking. Stops it from sticking, because for some read my pancabatter really likes sticking.

awang8 says: Jan 11, 2009. 7:01 PM REPSorry, I didn't finish. Even when you put butter on it. The only way to stop it from sticking is oil.

I_am_Canadian says: Oct 3, 2008. 5:41 PM REPI like this a lot. I made one a while back... It was cool. I just made another, but its really short. It has two openings to let in enough oxygen. Im yet to use it.

Ghost Wolf says: Nov 27, 2008. 3:30 PM REPTry a BIG tin try it BIGGER pancakes

tz1_1zt says: Oct 4, 2008. 6:19 AM REPNice work. Post the results if you find any improvements. The height might affect the temperature and spread of heat across the cooking area, you neeto avoid small hot spots that burn the batter. It's easy to spot when the candles are starved of oxygen, either they go out or soot forms around the vent

holes. I've always wanted a means of making clean round holes around the base without deforming and bending the metal. The side window on ourcooker was sufficient to allow in air, but makes it less stable.

I_am_Canadian says: Oct 4, 2008. 5:19 PM REPOk, here are a few pictures. 1: Cooking station 2: the cooker 3: Just the way I like them. Burnt!

I_am_Canadian says: Oct 6, 2008. 10:01 AM REPFour. It gets really hot!

awang8 says: Jan 9, 2009. 3:39 AM REPThat's why it got burnt!

I_am_Canadian says: Oct 4, 2008. 2:36 PM REPYeah. I tried with only one hole, but the candles burned out right away. It still had enough heat inside the can to keep all the wax in the candlesmelted :-p I shall get a picture soon.

I love it's simple easy to make. What if you had a larger tin like from Costco how many candles would you need then?

tz1_1zt says: Oct 4, 2008. 6:12 AM REPWhen cooking pancakes, hotter and faster equates to burnt and dry. As we've described in this instructable, two tealights worked well and three cookedtoo quickly. There is not really any benefit to increasing the heat source when tiny candles are already sufficient.
